Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cup (480 ml) s very warm water {I used tap}
- 1 packet rapid rise yeast {or 2 1/4 teaspoon (11 ml) s}
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) granulated sugar
- 2 Tablespoon (30 ml) s vegetable oil
- 43/4–51/4 cup (3060 ml) s all purpose flour
- 11/2 teaspoon (28 ml) s salt
Instructions
- Combine the very warm water, rapid rise yeast, and granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl. Stir well and allow the mixture to rest for 5 minutes until a creamy foam begins to appear.
- Incorporate the vegetable oil, half of the all-purpose flour (about 2 1/4 cups), and salt. Begin mixing with a dough hook or use your hands. Gradually add the remaining flour until the dough detaches from the bowl’s sides. Knead for 4-5 minutes using the dough hook or on a floured surface if mixing manually.
- Drape a dish towel over the bowl containing the dough and place it in a warm area to rise for about 20 minutes, or until it nearly doubles in size.
- Split the dough into two equal parts and place each into a loaf pan that has been liberally coated with non-stick spray.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and bake the loaves for 25-30 minutes until the tops turn golden brown. If you tap the top and it sounds hollow, it’s ready.
- After baking, take the bread out of the oven and allow it to cool in the pans for 5-10 minutes. Then transfer the loaves to a cooling rack to cool completely.
- Slice the bread into 1/2 inch pieces. Use these slices for sandwiches or toast. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
Notes
- Make sure the water is about 110°F (43°C) to activate the yeast properly for proofingnAdd flour gradually until the dough pulls away from the bowlnGenerously apply non-stick spray to loaf pans to avoid sticking
